Accessible ICT Procurement Implementation Guide
The launch of the Accessible ICT Procurement Implementation Guide for Higher Education will help to address some of the barriers that students with disability face during their educational experience, through improving access to their learning materials.
“Students with disability are the fastest growing equity group in the higher education sector – nearly 80,000 students were studying at Australian universities in 2020,” Assistant Minister Chisholm said.
Here is a link to the Accessible IT Procurement guide.
The guide includes advice on procurement policies, how higher education providers can meet the Australian Standard for Accessibility requirements for ICT products and services and contains information on how to enable accessibility in existing software and hardware.
